This year’s AFRAM will also feature a celebration of 40 years of House Music, showcasing the unique history of the genre, it’s origins in Baltimore, and local legends that became national sensations like the Basement Boys.
“Each year, AFRAM brings Baltimore together to celebrate our city’s history, culture, community, and love for music,” said Mayor Brandon M. Scott. “As one of the largest Black arts and culture fairs on the East Coast, it gives us an opportunity to celebrate the best of Baltimore and gather together to show the world what we have to offer.
